Email and encryption in one solution

With Hushmail, you don’t need additional email providers because we integrate the encryption component seamlessly with our email service. You are able to send and receive emails as with any regular email service, but you also have the option to encrypt your emails for extra protection. The encryption is automatic between Hushmail users. For everyone else, you can manage it with a checkbox located on the Compose screen of our webmail or Hushmail for iPhone app.

Hushmail can be used immediately without installing any software or hardware because we are a fully hosted web-based service. Access your email from anywhere via a web browser or by setting up your account on Hushmail for iPhone or on your favorite smartphone or PC email app.

Easy encryption

Encryption between employees with an account happens automatically, so you don’t even have to think about it. When emailing clients outside your company, our on-demand encryption is easily managed with a checkbox. Just sign in to your account on our webmail or Hushmail for iPhone app, compose a message and check the "Encrypted" box to send the message securely. Learn how it works.

Multiple layers of security

We have a proven track record of providing industry-standard OpenPGP encryption to protect the contents of the email, ensuring its security, privacy, and authenticity. In addition, all communications between you and our servers use a secure connection (our A+ grade SSL/TLS connection is rated by Qualsys SSL Labs).

Two-step verification

This layer of security prevents unauthorized access to your Hushmail account by using a two-stage process to authenticate your identity from any device we don't recognize. The first step is to sign in using your username and passphrase. The second step is entering a verification code that we’ll send to your mobile phone or an alternate email address. You can also obtain a verification code using a smartphone app.

Send encrypted email to anyone

Email sensitive information directly to your clients, regardless of their email provider. They will be able to reply directly to your message and send documents securely, even if they don’t have a Hushmail account. Learn how it works.

Encrypted email on your iPhone

Hushmail for iPhone lets you take the secure email experience of Hushmail with you anywhere you go. The app supports encrypted email to anyone, two-step verification, Touch ID, multiple accounts and aliases, and it’s synced with your webmail account, for seamless access to contacts and settings. Available on the App Store.

Accessible everywhere you work

Access your Hushmail account from the web or Hushmail for iPhone app. You can also set up your Hushmail account on your favorite smartphone email app or email software of your choice on your PC (e.g. Outlook, Apple Mail, or Thunderbird) with our POP/IMAP support.

Use your own domain

Personalize your email using the domain that you already own (e.g. yourbusiness.com) and remain as professional and trustworthy as ever. If you don't own a domain, you can use one of our ".hush.com" subdomains (e.g. yourname@yourbusiness.hush.com).

Dedicated customer support

If you need help with Hushmail, you can always call, email, or chat with us. We will take the time to personally answer all your questions, understand your problem and do our best to find a solution.

Unlimited email aliases

Aliases are alternate email addresses ending in @nym.hush.com. Use these aliases to mask your real email address when you don’t feel comfortable disclosing it. Aliases point email to your existing Hushmail account and share the same inbox.

Business model built around privacy

Privacy is our priority, not an afterthought. When you use Hushmail, you own your data and your emails are not analyzed to display advertising. Your data is never sold to anyone. Your IP address does not appear on the headers of the email.

Data safely stored in Canada

Location matters. The rules that apply to the protection of your data differ from one location to another. Enjoy some peace of mind, safe in the knowledge that your data is stored only in Canada and under the protection of Canadian Law.

Privacy is essential in the healthcare industry. Healthcare practitioners of all kinds are bound by professional and ethical standards—not to mention the law, in most jurisdictions—to keep patient information confidential and secure. This includes anything learned through conversations with patients, but also data kept on file. Read more.
